Next to Missy, Burrito and Foxie are probably CSNW’s biggest goofs (chimp-wise, anyway) and balancing games of chase between the two of them can be quite a workout. I couldn’t ask for better personal trainers. :)

Wow, Jackie! I am out of breath just watching…LOL. What fun that must be!
Hi You have good trainers, Do they tag team you ? You have to LOVE them I know I DO
Give them some extra LOVE & FOOD for me
An thank you all for the love and care
I would pay big time to have those personal trainers!!!! Hmmmm….. another way to raise $ ????? : )
How fun! Each time you chased the chimps all I could picture were the chimps smiling, running and saying “Nanner, Nanner, Nanner!!” What a great workout!
I loved that little ‘sliding into home plate’ move there at the end! LOL!
Running back and forth … in July … in a sweatshirt! Says so much about the crummy summer weather in the northwest this year!
Indeed, Anna. Indeed.
A sweatshirt in July would be just fine for me. Heat index today July 13 was 110.. I love the chimps so much. Tell their Aunt Kathy from Houston sends them a lot of hugs and loving. Keep up the great work with them . These guys are very happy and loved.
You are such a great chimpanzee, Jackie!! Love this video. What a joy to see Burrito so happy!
What fun! I would love to be able to play with them like that. I love watching them. :)
I can see all that clearly in my head and lol….loved spending time there with you and the 7 on Monday!….still sounds windy!!!
what fun ! the simplest things keep these lovely chimps happy ! thanks for sharing x
You think of so many different ways to keep them occupied and stimulated. No guessing who was tired first tho. Foxie & Burrito win again.
This was great! I agree – what a great exercise program. Way better than sitting at a desk all day! Even though I don’t post as much lately, I read the blog every day and want to say its great to see all the new names of people that have discovered the Cle Elum 7! Welcome!
Oh what fun, Jackie! Yes, you definitely have one of the best jobs in the world!!! I sure missed coming out this month and can’t wait to see everyone. Keep up the loving. You all are great. Of course, when you have such cute, wonderful, playful chimps to work with it isn’t hard to do! (Well, maybe it is hard, but it is fun!!)
that’s the kind of workout I need!
